Today I am sharing a fun Memorial Day recipe for the long weekend. Cherries and limes are the perfect combination for a unique twist on the classic mojito. The tangy flavor of the cherries combined with tart of the limes makes this the perfect warm weather drink. If you love mint this is the perfect drink for you!
